I Have Never Been The Same

Hello again, it's you
the one I can't forget,
Why won't you go away
there is so much I regret.

We could have had it all
yet you threw it all away,
I forced you to go and 
you begged me to stay.

You scarred me in ways
you will never comprehend,
Your tore apart my dreams
and my heart just cannot mend.

I gave myself to you
with complete and udder trust,
You threw away our future
for a single moments lust.

We were just so young
where did it all go wrong,
Why do I still love you
after so very long.

It seems like yesterday we were
happy as could be,
But yet an eternity since I felt
your arms around me.

You had such big strong arms
and you held me oh so tight,
Sometimes I still can feel you
in the middle of the night.

Mine was such a pure love
so honest and so true,
You took my love for granted
and made me such a fool.

Each man that I would meet
I would try so hard to love,
But he wasn't you and it was
simply not enough.

To erase the ache I felt
the hole you left behind,
I still feel it today
Time is so unkind.

My life goes on today but my heart
still bears your name,
Since the day we said goodbye I have
never been the same.
